We have learned over the past 3 years that it is impossible to stop it completely, but it can be slowed down and managed. The U.S should do the same immediately.

At this point we only need vaccination proof.

Vaccines are effective (at least the big three of Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZeneca). As long as they're vaccinated with one of those three, it's fine.

And the US is still requesting proof of vaccination from noncitizens who are nonimmigrants. It's still based on the two shots (one for J&J) from before. Maybe that part should be updated to 2 plus recent booster (or 1 from J&J plus recent booster).
